Answer 1

like Kal wrote :

1. InputStream is = getClass().getResourceAsStream("......");
2. AudioInputStream ais = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(is);...

I did just that and it didn't work at first but the problem of "java.io.IOException" was that I used File.separator and for some reason win 8.1 couldn't handle "\\"...

public AudioInputStream getSound(String fileName){
    InputStream inputSound;
    AudioInputStream audioInStr;
    String fs = File.separator;

    try {
       absolutePath = fs +packageName+ fs +folderName+ fs +fileName;
       inputSound = getClass().getResourceAsStream(absolutePath);

       //if null pointer exception try unix, for some reason \\ doesn't work on win 8.1
       if(inputSound == null) {
           absolutePath = "/" + packageName + "/" + folderName + "/" + fileName;
           inputSound = getClass().getResourceAsStream(absolutePath);
       }

       audioInStr = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(new BufferedInputStream(inputSound));
       return audioInStr;
    }
